March to the beat of your drummer

I would love to be a musician,  but I can't read music.  I tried to learn for a couple of years.  I played the tuba in middle school.  But musical notes all look the same.  One step up or down the funny lines, they all look the same to my brain.  But they don't all sound the same.  I had to mark up the score, or I was hopeless.  Teaching music to the musically handicapped was how the band master described it. I don't known who was more relieved, him or I when I called it quits.

I do enjoy music, but perhaps to the beat of my personal drummer.
